#today on the 3rd Thursday of #November the American Cancer Society sponsors the Great American Smokeout, challenging smokers to give up cigarettes for 24 hours. Touro College of Pharmacy's Assistant Dean for Curriculum and Founder of our collaborative PharmD/MPH degree, Dr. Batoul Senhaji-Tomza shares this #publichealth message. “The tobacco epidemic and its impact is one of the largest public health threats. It is estimated that smoking; one of the most common forms of tobacco use, accounts for 1 in 5 deaths in the US alone. It is never too late to quit smoking and today more than ever we are fortunate to be equipped with effective tools to support smoking cessation. Take action today and join the Great American Smokeout for a chance to improve your (or your loved one’s) health and reduce your (their) risk for heart disease, cancer, lung disease and other illnesses.” #pharmacy #quitsmoking #heartdisease #cancer #lungdisease #pharmacyeducation #pharmacyschool #pharm4me #indispensable #pharmacistsprovidecare #publichealthmatters #publichealtheducation #greatamericansmokeout @americancancersociety
